Nintendo warns Brazilian retailers not to sell Pokemon X/Y early

Sales of Pokemon X/Y prior to the games’ official release date have been an obvious problem. A few stores in the US were spotted selling copies several days ago, and most retailers in the UK are now getting involved as well.

As far as Brazil is concerned, any store caught selling copies prior to tomorrow will face repercussions. Nintendo has warned retailers in the country that any copies of Pokemon X/Y sold prior to tomorrow will result in the withholding of future product shipments until after their official release date. That means such stores wouldn’t be able to sell consumers the latest Nintendo games at launch. A harsh punishment, but one that’s necessary.
